🕰️ History
Geehi is part of the ancestral lands of the Ngarigo people, who traditionally travelled through this alpine region during seasonal movements. The area has long been used for summer grazing, and later by stockmen and horse riders. Today, it remains a hotspot for equestrian treks, including the route toward Major Clews Hut and beyond.
